(Okay fine there’s no action figure yet. But just, you wait.)
Whoaaaaa, time flies when you’re having fun and/or buried under the mountain that is you “until crunchtime” work. I just realized that it has been over a week since I last posted! So here I am sitting in my pajamas (yes, from this morning) taking a break from my super sweet German presentation posters updating you on really whatever flies into my head as important. Which could be what I had for breakfast (toast and cream cheese) or what my project is on (“Youth and Religion in Berlin”). Lucky for you neither have crossed my mind. However, I will note again just how sweet my posters are. Add some pictures and a little color and I guarantee that it’ll distract the audience from your (my) horrendous German grammar. Or not. Fine, I just like art projects, don’t judge.
So what have I been up to? That is other than slaving away in front of my laptop trying to sound coherent and eloquent for seven pages of German. I have been dress shopping! Because…I am going to LONDON! And this Nerdy Girl has never actually been there. (I hesitate to count the 10 hour layover where my mom dragged my jet-lagged brother and I into the city onto a double-decker bus where we promptly fell asleep. Hey, she was cruelly teasing me.)
However, while London promises to be a fabulous city with tons of things to do and museums to visit, the reason I am excited is far beyond that I, my dear readers (my blog statistics assure me that you DO in fact exist), will be attending the world premiere of James Cameron’s Avatar! Apparently having a super cool uncle who plays the bad guy (Colonel Quaritch) in said film has a few perks. I have to say that never thought I would see a member of my family immortalized in the form of an action figure.
I hope that when they choose to immortalize me in plastic they make me look just as fit and perky. Perhaps not in camaouflage though – How about one of those barbieprincess dresses? Not to worry I refrained myself when dress shopping for the premiere and decided after much stressful deliberation to forgo excessive lace, ruffles, and satin. That being said, Prince Harry better watch out for this Nerdy Girl.
